Give Dull Floors New Life

With Top Industry Professionals in Chandler / Gilbert


All flooring requires maintenance to continue looking nice, especially hardwood floors. But even if you take great care of your hardwood floors, they may lose their sheen over time. Whether your hardwood floors are starting to look dull or you’re just looking for tips to prevent them from becoming dull, you’ve come to the right place.

Protect and Maintain

So how do you fix a dull floor in Chandler / Gilbert? Preventing damage is the first step. Here are some ideas for protecting your hardwood floors:

  • Protect them from sunlight. Hardwood floors are sensitive to sunlight. Areas where your floors are exposed to sun will likely fade over time. You can avoid some of this impact with help from throw rugs, blinds or curtains. For an even longer–term solution, consider strategically planting trees or bushes to give your home a bit more shade. You could also install UV–resistant or tinted windows.
  • Remove shoes. High heels are particularly good at scratching through hardwood finishes. Pet nails can also be damaging, so keep pet nails trimmed to protect your floors.
  • Clean the right way. First, sweep or vacuum your floors before applying a wet mop to remove any grit. Then make sure you're using the right cleaner. Products you use on other floorings may strip your floors of their finishes and harm the wood rather than clean it. Finally, don't overdo it on the cleaner—using too much cleaner, even if it's meant for hardwood floors, can make them look dull.

With careful maintenance and attention, a little can go a long way in preserving the beauty of your hardwood flooring.

Refinish and Repair


Unfortunately, protection and maintenance aren't always the answer to how do you fix a dull floor. Even the best–kept floors will likely need special attention over time. When cleaning no longer gets the job done, your floors may need to be refinished or repaired.

Refinish

Refinishing helps give your floors a new life and goes a long way to prevent damage that is far more expensive to repair. The process involves sanding away imperfections and applying a new finish. Although it sounds simple, many things can go wrong during refinishing. You may sand one part of the floor too much, damaging it and making it look uneven, or improperly apply a finish.

Repair

More extensive damage to floors, such as deep gouges, cannot simply be refinished. Instead, they may require either repair or replacement.

What Our Customers Say

Great experience! Would hire again!

Footprints Floors helped me get flooring redone for a house that I am listing for sale. They were able to get in the next week and have everything done by the end of the week just before a short term renter came in to occupy the property. Everything went super smooth, Matt got me an estimate same day and Melissa ensured the project was being handled in a timely manner from start to finish! My client was super happy and the project turned out beautifully. We will definitely be using them again in the future!
Amber Hollien 12/23/24 — google
The wife found Footprints on FB marketplace trying to locate a flooring company that could help us with a remodel. Right off the bat from the beginning everyone we came in contact with was so friendly and knowledgeable and listened to all of our needs for the project. We could not wait to get started. The project is all done and we could not be happier! The whole team, Matt, Melissa, Rueben and his teammate did a phenomenal job. They helped us with scope that we were not sure of how to handle and went above an beyond with every request! We are already discussing the next project and will be using Footprints again! Update 12/20/24 Second round of flooring project completed! Another phenomenal job by Footprints and the whole team. The biggest issue we have is there isn't another project needed to be completed at this time :) if you need something done this is the company to choose!

Very appreciative that they took on my project. I had water damage in my kitchen, needed the engineered planks replaced and they did a great job. Very professional, showed up on time and went above and beyond to do the job correctly. Thank you!

The crew was hard working, on-time, consistent and professional. The work turned out wonderfully! I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. We removed and replaced tile and used Vinyl planks as well. Great company!

I used Footprints Floors and I wanted to give a special thank you to Edgar and his installation team who did a beautiful job with the hardwood floor installation. We chose extra long and wide floors which is extra challenging to install. His team provided excellent customer service and made sure I was 100% satisfied with the work and came back to do touch ups for a few items. We had 2,000 sq ft installed and I love my new floors!
Mandy Anderson 11/22/24 — google
We had Footprints Floors do two rooms for us and we couldn't be happier. They are the "BEST"..Matt was so gracious and helpful to get us what we needed, and the two young men that did the work, "Really excellent workers and just great to have in the house". Melissa also great, kept an eye on the job start to finish also making things run smooth. They were basically in and out two days, we were back to living in our house and loving it!!! Thanks so much to your "TEAM"..
Bob Sommer 10/22/24 — google
100% recommend Footprints and we wouldn’t hesitate to hire them in future. They were a pleasure to work with, very helpful through the process. Everything was cleaned up nicely, they started on time and finished in less time than anticipated. We couldn’t be happier with our new floors, they are beautiful.

The team from Footprints Floors are wonderful! They did a great job installing my floors! They are very professional, polite, and made sure I was happy with everything from start to finish. I can't say enough of how impressed I am with their work ethic. I would highly recommend Footprints Floors.
Laura Amoroso 09/17/24 — google
I had Footprints Floors install tile in my master bedroom, and they did an amazing job! Their attention to detail was impressive, and the final result looks fantastic. The pricing was very reasonable, and their customer service was great throughout the process. Highly recommend!
Krista Larsen-Salih 09/9/24 — google
I could not be happier with Footprints! Having 4 dogs, my bedroom carpet was a horrible disaster. I found tile that matched the rest of my house, and Footprints installed it. The installer (I wish I had written down his name) was incredible! I tried to keep my 4 dogs outside, but they weren't having it. The installer told me to let them in, he would be fine. And sure enough, my dogs made a new best friend (one tried to leave with him on the first day). My project started on a Monday morning, and by Tuesday afternoon, the whole room was done and grouted. It looks fantastic! They were upfront on pricing and very clean. Will definitely use them again, and recommend them for sure!

Matt available throughout our project. Great communication and guidance on material needed. Shout out to Junior and his sidekick that installed LVP flooring. Talented young crew that have obviously laid this type of flooring. Footprints bid came in a little higher, but after talking with them I knew the project would be completed properly - they didn't disappoint. A big shout out to Rueben, very professional and knowledgeable of his trade.
Carl Fries 08/23/24 — google
The Footprints team were amazing! I needed new flooring in bedroom, kitchen and repairs to wood flooring and kitchen backsplash. Melissa kept the project moving, their crew were efficient and had a crew of specialists for each part of the project. They are the real heroes of this story, they were all nice, efficient, showed up on time and did good work! I was most worried about how they’d repair/replace the damage so it blends with the rest of the flooring. I only wish I did it sooner. I have my home back! Thank you Matt, Melissa and Footprints team!
Jolie Keys 08/18/24 — google
Great work and service. My back splash looks perfect.
jeff Mavis 07/29/24 — google
Matt, Melissa, Edgar and the entire team at Footprints Floors were awesome. From the minute I submitted a webform with interest to today when I made my final payment, they were responsive, considerate, easy to work with, listened to and understood what we were really hoping to achieve, and DELIVERED! Every time we walk in the doors to our home and see our new stairs we take a deep breath and relax knowing they are beautiful, protected, and done with high quality materials and craftsmanship. They were able to match (as closely as can be expected) the stain of the real wood to our LVP flooring throughout the rest of the home. I even called them back to ask if they could fix a few things that seemed like small misses, but would have bothered me daily, and they didn't hesitate - Edgar even came out on a Saturday morning to button things up. Price was fair - work is outstanding - experience is 5-star! Than you!!

We found Footprints Floors through a Google search. We did their online free estimate request and was promptly contacted through a text to set up an appointment. Matt came within two days, sent a proposal within another two days, and was able to start the work within another week. We chose Footprint Floors to do a kitchen backsplash to upgrade our kitchen. The night before the project start date we received a text from Melissa, who was assigned to be the manager for the project. She detailed what to expect the next day. The day of the project, Matt introduced us to Fernando and his son, who did the work. Melissa, came later in the day to check on the progress and to see if Fernando needed anything. Fernando and his son were professional, took great care to protect the surrounding areas, did precise work, and cleaned up almost without a trace, inside and outside. We highly recommend giving Footprints Floors your consideration for your next project.
Chadwick Family 06/11/24 — google
The Footprints Team once again did an amazing job for us. LVP, ceramic tile and new baseboards gave our rooms the refresh we were looking for!
Laura Fiemann 06/3/24 — google
Excellent work and great communication along the way. From the time I reached out the job was completed with a few weeks. Highly Recommend.
